After the shock, Master Yanyu said, "Ling Tian, what do you plan to do next?"
"My idea is that now that the fire has been stoked, the Bai family has suffered heavy losses, and the Tianshan Sword Sect has also been dealt a severe blow. These two families are now sworn enemies!
At this time, there is no need for us to take risks to deal with them; they will tear each other apart on their own.
I have already sent the three masters back to Longpan Mountain. I have also contacted the fourth master, and he said he would stand down and return to the mountain soon!
No matter what, they absolutely cannot know that we are the ones attacking them. This could very well arouse their suspicion and even lead them to join forces against us!"
Master Yanyu nodded with great admiration.
"Ling Tian, you are right. It should be like this. When it's time to withdraw, don't hesitate!
We can watch the show from the sidelines and clean up the mess after they have both suffered heavy losses!"
"Master, I have another idea. We can't just do nothing.
A centipede dies but never stiffens! Like the behemoth that is the Long family, although many elites have died this time, they still have many elites all over the world, as well as immense wealth!
If we do nothing, the Long family will take several years to slowly recover its vitality and eventually destroy the Tianshan Sword Sect!
Therefore, I don't intend to give them a chance to make a comeback. We must do everything we can to hinder them!"
"Alright, I love hindering them the most. Ling Tian, what specific ideas do you have?"
"I have some intelligence about the Long family here. Please use some means to quietly release it. Remember, do not let anyone know that it came from the Yanyu Pavilion!"
"Spreading rumors? I'm very good at that!" Master Yanyu said with a smile.
Ling Tian smiled and shook his head, "This is not spreading rumors; I'm just making the facts public!"
Immediately after, the three of them began to whisper and plot...
...
In the capital, at the headquarters of the Righteous Alliance, the high-ranking officials of the Righteous Alliance gathered in the conference room. Also present in this conference room was an unwelcome guest, and it was because of him that this meeting was held. This person was Long Ming.
He took the initiative to inform the high-ranking officials of the Righteous Alliance that he had discovered evidence of the Tianshan Sword Sect colluding with heretical sects!
As soon as everyone arrived, he busied himself with presenting all the evidence he had obtained using a PowerPoint.
"Everyone, I am ashamed to say that some time ago, our Long family was also deceived by the Tianshan Sword Sect!
Especially my poor little niece, not only was she cheated on, but she was also ambushed by people from the Tianshan Sword Sect and has now perished.
Our Long family has an irreconcilable hatred for the people of the heretical sects!"
Looking at this fellow indignantly condemning the heretical sects and the people of the Tianshan Sword Sect, everyone present couldn't help but want to laugh. This was simply a clown!
Before Long Ming could finish, Xuanyuan Jie rudely interrupted him.
"I say, Long Ming, we are all thousand-year-old foxes, so don't try to tell us ghost stories!
Who doesn't know that your Long family has long been colluding with the Tianshan Sword Sect? And what about young people falling in love? Your engagement was already set in stone!
If it weren't for the fact that Yun Zhan of the Tianshan Sword Sect cheated this time, causing your Long family to lose face, you would never have broken ties with the Tianshan Sword Sect and would have continued to protect them!"
"Old man Xuanyuan, don't slander me! Our Long family joined the Righteous Alliance no later than your Xuanyuan family!
We were simply deceived. If we had obtained this intelligence at the time, and I knew that the Tianshan Sword Sect was colluding with heretical sects, we would have exposed their ugly faces..."
"Enough of your sweet talk. Do you think we don't know what you're up to?
You just want to use a borrowed knife to kill, to use the power of the Righteous Alliance to deal with the Tianshan Sword Sect. Your little schemes are all evident in these matters..."
"You, old scoundrel, you are slandering me..."
Seeing that the two were about to fight again, Xie Liheng quickly stepped in to stop them.
"Silence! This is not a place for you to quarrel!
In any case, we will re-examine the intelligence provided by Long Ming. If this intelligence is true, and the Tianshan Sword Sect is indeed colluding with heretical sects, we will absolutely not forgive them!"
"Secretary-General Xie, I hope you will agree to reinstate my position and the positions of my subordinates. I will personally handle this matter and ensure that the people of the Tianshan Sword Sect are brought to justice..." Long Ming seized the opportunity to make this request, as only by regaining his position could he better utilize the resources of the Righteous Alliance.
"I object!" Xuanyuan Jie suddenly stood up.
"Our Righteous Alliance is an organization subordinate to the government. Our duty is to maintain the stability and safety of the martial arts world, not a tool for some people to seek personal gain for their families!
Even if you, Long Ming, want your position back, we will discuss it after we have investigated and confirmed that the intelligence you provided is true, and that your Long family has no collusion with heretical sects and the Tianshan Sword Sect!"
The people present nodded frequently. Seeing this, Long Ming became a little anxious.
"Secretary-General Xie, it's fine if you don't reinstate my position, but my subordinates, Tian Yiming and the others, are all skilled investigators. These matters of the Tianshan Sword Sect colluding with heretical sects were all uncovered by them. You should at least reinstate their positions and jobs!" Dafeng Novel Network
Long Ming's plan was brilliant. His subordinates were loyal to him and obeyed his every command.
Even if Long Ming could not regain his position, as long as his subordinates returned to their posts, they could still follow his orders. Whether his own position was reinstated or not was irrelevant.
"No, I disagree..." Xuanyuan Jie slammed the table.
"I think it's possible. After all, Tian Yiming and the others have the ability. We need to use talented people..." said a leader who had a good relationship with Long Ming.
"Why don't we vote? The minority obeys the majority..." someone else offered a suggestion.
Just then, the door of the conference room was pushed open, and a staff member rushed in. He held a document and went directly to Xie Liheng.
"Secretary-General Xie, there has been a sudden surge of news on major martial arts forums and social media across the country regarding the Long family..."
The staff member stopped halfway through his sentence, then noticed Long Ming, whose face had turned ashen, and swallowed the rest of his words.
Xie Liheng took the document and began to read it. Soon, his expression became somewhat peculiar.
After a while, Xie Liheng handed the document to others, and it was passed around among the crowd.
When these people saw the document, each of them wore an expression as if they had seen a ghost...
